God's Complete Restoration

God is in the restoration business. He takes people, and even nations, who have rebelled against Him, and He restores them to a closer relationship with them than they had before they departed from Him. I have seen it many times, and I know we all have seen this happen. Ezekiel prophesied about how God is going to do this for Israel. It hasn't happened yet, but it will happen. God will regather all of the Jews to Israel, and He will pour out His Spirit on them. (Ezekiel 39:28,29) It will take place after the huge battle that is described in Ezekiel 38 and 39. That will be the sign to the Jews that God is still on their side, and they will return to the land and to the Lord. Not one will be left out. That is how complete the restoration of God can be. What do you need from the Lord today?

Many people grew up in church, but they have strayed from the Lord. Others have known the Lord for years, but something happened that caused them to turn away from Him. Either way, these people and those who never knew the Lord Jesus need to know that there is hope for them. God can and does restore people to full fellowship with Him. There are no second class children in God's family. We all have the opportunity to turn from our way and surrender to the Lord. Then, He runs to us, so He can have a party for the one who has returned. I pray that if you need restoration or if you simply need to trust Jesus as your Lord and Savior that you will do it today. God is waiting with open arms!
